Im sitting here watching sum bull**** movie about a maid been swept off her feet by some famous guy and he happens to have an interest in her son at the same time! LOL What kind of movie is this suppose to appeal to, single mothers or something? LOL

Replace 'women' with 'men' and 'chickflicks' with 'porn'. Thanks.

there are romantic guys out there! i was proposed to after 6 mths of knowing my husband . he proposed on a plane with huge diamond and then we got married in Las Vegas 2 weeks later. he well and truly swept me off my feet. Maybe your just a lazy guy? if your not willing to romance a lady you will most likely end up in non satisfying relationship (prob for her)or no relationship at all.

We don't all enjoy chick flicks.

I think that was a scene from the Wedding Singer.

Most movies aren't like real life, that's why we like them.

Proposed to on a plane and married in Vegas? Oh yeah you were romanced alright.

Not cliched or tacky what so ever, you lucky girl you.

This thread can be solved with a last minute dash to the airport, for some reason

or you'll end up with a lady who doesn't have grandiose expectations of being romanced after letting one too many Hollywood romcoms go to her head

There's no such thing imo. Only good films and bad films.

slum dog · 10-07-2011 10:29PM

chickflicks are shocking! the plot line is always the same. some girl falling in love. movies concerning men have many plots, and they rarely focus on falling in love with women!

LETHAL LADY · 10-07-2011 10:30PM

After tidying the house all day, making the dinner for the family and finishing off reading our copies of OK and Hello magazine it nice to unwind with an interesting and factual movie.

Just don't watch the types of movies you don't like. Watch the ones you DO like. Simples.

dark crystal · 10-07-2011 10:31PM

Sorry, do you actually believe women are stupid enough to believe that chick flicks represent real life or something?

They are pure escapism, same as James Bond or Swarzenegger movies are for men.

Is Pretty Woman any more believeable as a real concept to women as Die Hard is to a man? Like f*ck it is.

No, but there will be a sub-plot focusing on screwing one.

Not all women like "chick-flick". We don't all like Sex and The City, either.

Chickflicks are Mother Natures way of ensuring the continuation of the human species.

Do you really know someone after 6 months? not trying to rain on your parade or anything.

well it was far more romantic than ur average boring safe irish marriage. we married six years now and lived in canada and austraila. we also built a house together and now have a 2 year old. he is an amazing man and husband and friend. we have lived a life together in 6 years , way beyond what a person like you could imagine. enjoy ur safe little life, and ur average memories
